I second this advice.
The wheel sizes I ended up with are in that post, yes. 20x11 fronts with a 6.75" BS, 20x12 rears with a 7.75" BS.
But I'd 100% measure it myself, especially when ordering custom wheels you can't return.
Also note that the fronts WILL interfere with the shock mount. And they will likely interfere with aftermarket lower control arms sway bar mount unless you relocate it like I did.
If you're not wanting to mess with that I'd go at least an inch narrower in the fronts, but again, measure it!
Also keep in mind that your rear end might be narrower depending on if it's an early or late 70', which will affect the offset you need.
I wanted wide tires on all 4 corners for two reasons. One, to increase braking performance by having a wider front pad. And two because a square stance is supposed to help counter understeer, which we have loads of in these.
Hope that helps.
